Supply chain management is the coordination and integration of goods and services, information and financial flows within and among organizations, in response to or in anticipation of customer demand. An effective supply chain provides the right product or service, in the right quality and cost, in the right amount, in the right place, at the right time—adding value at every stage, from sourcing to consumer.
